State Energy Efficiency Index 2023
The State Energy Efficiency Index (SEEI) is a tool designed to track EE initiatives in the states and UTs. It provides insights on sub-national energy efficiency policies, programmes, and investments. The SEEI activity was initiated by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), in association with the Alliance for an Energy Efficient Economy (AEEE), to evaluate the annual progress of EE implementation in the states. SEEI 2023 is the fifth edition of the index after the successful execution of the State Energy Efficiency Preparedness Index 2018, SEEI 2019, SEEI 2020, and SEEI 2021-22.
The objectives of SEEI 2023 are to:
- Help drive EE policies and programme implementation at the state and local level
- Highlight best practices and encourage healthy competition among states
- Track progress in managing the states’ and India’s energy footprint
- Institutionalise state-level data capture and monitoring of EE activities by the State Designated Agencies (SDAs)
The SEEI 2023 assesses the performance of 36 states and UTs using 65 qualitative, quantitative, and outcome-based indicators measures for FY 2022-23. It is distributed across seven (7) demand sectors: Buildings, Industry, Municipal services, Transport, Agriculture, DISCOMs, and cross-sector initiatives.
